"Red and black fruits, flowers, chalky minerality, and spicy, subtly leather-like nuances all emerge from the 2022 Saint Joseph Silice, a medium to full-bodied, beautifully balanced, elegant Saint Joseph that has fine tannins and a beautiful sense of freshness. It should shine right out of the gate, yet given its overall balance and purity, also evolve for 15 years."

"The medium-bodied 2022 Saint-Joseph Silice is laced with ripe blackberry, black cherry, crushed violets and delicate cedar. Elegant and refreshing, it offers a juicy mouthful of classic Rhône Valley Syrah. Ripe and polished tannins lend gentle structure to this open-knit 2022."
